I know some friends who collect Zippo lighter as a hobby, they might be interested in getting one of this pocket stealth camera. The untra small size camera is named l’espion S Digital Dream .Com Ltd. It is a 0.3 Megapixel camera which could possibly hold over 300 images at the resolution of 320 x 240.

In fact, it is not permanently attached to a Zippo style-like lighter casing, it can be removed from the casing. It uses ST Micro technology and LiteSync technology, which enable the camera for high quality image capturing and store them in a small file size. Moreover, at such a small size, the l’espion S amazingly has all three functions of snapping pictures, video recording and voice recording.

To use the camera is pretty easy, flip the cover of the casing, press the snap button, close the casing. It is no doubt a great tool for spying, isn’t it?

There are some sample images taken and even a spy shot at casino royale !! Personally, I found the quality of those shots are not bad.

Here is a quick look of the specification of the l’espion S :-

• 0.3 Megapixel : 150 pictures @ 640 x 480 & 310 pictures @ 320 x 240
• 30 second video clip recording with sound
• 8MB data storage
• 12 minutes of voice recording
• USB Plug-n-Play
• Uses only 1 “AAA” battery

Well, it comes with the Zippo-style meta[code]l casing as well. :)
